Dates of Posts

Post by Jean Jeanie » Sun Dec 19, 2004 2:50 pm

Is this peculiar to me or is it happening to anyone else.

Before I log on to the site all the dates of the posts down the right hand side of the screen show 15th, 16th, 17th December etc.

When I log on to the site all the dates change to the 12th December! Every post in every topic also shows the date to be 12th December(incidentally the date I joined)

Anybody any ideas?
Jean

Hi Jean -
It sounds as though you have an "m" where a "d" should be in your personal options for displaying the date. (That is, numerical month followed by the month spelled out... no day-of-month at all.)
Naturally, this is experienced only after you log on. It is only then that your personal options are applied to the display.

That same options-setting page has a link to the BB codes (lower left quadrant) for the date/time display codes.

Check your options: I'll bet you have two "Ms" in a row (one lower case, one upper - or similar) in your date/time codes.
